Answer 1

Don't panic for one.  If you stop panicking and at least be confident in yourself.  You'd probably retain information much better.  So you'd probably do better on this exam.   I know failing is bad but if you do fail.  At least you learned stuff from this class.  It's important that you know this stuff.  Sometimes it's not good passing someone if you don't know all the stuff needed to know especially if this is a specific class relating to your degree.  I'm sure you could always retake the class.  At least the second time would be easier then the first.  In many colleges I don't know about yours.  They'd cover up the original grade.  I've known people in college who retook classes and their life still moved on.   My debate coach I think retook a class three times.   Finally passed.  College isn't about grades as much as it's just passing a class.  If you don't pass retake a class.  At least be grateful that in college you get to go at your own pace.  In high school it's much harder to retake a class because it's on a set schedule plus besides then you'd take it a grade lower with under class men.  College isn't the case.  You have young kids to adults in your class pretty much.

Well I wish you luck.  I'd probably talk to your teacher in how you feel, and also I'd go see a professional that deals with these type of problems.  

Also I'd get some tutoring perhaps.  Your doing one thing good.  Studying ahead of time is a good thing rather then studying last minute.  You still have two weeks.  There still is hope that you'd pass your exams.  Sometimes it's like being a late bloomer or a study bloomer.  You study and study and after so many long hours you actually get most of it and understand it.  Well anyways I wish you luck.

Relax first.

1) Get a blank notebook and write the chapter # on the top of each page.

2) Start writing ALL questions you have about everything you do not understand in each chapter. Don't worry about studying yet just go though ALL papers,quizzes,handouts from teacher,and book and write out every question  that you need to know. Spend two day on this if you need to WITHOUT studying.

3) Get another notebook and have it next to the question notebook and start with the first question and number it as #1 then the next one as #2 and #3 etc...

Block everything out of your mind except ONE question at a time. Find out the answer,write it out and don't move on until it is 100% completed.

4) Once you finish the first few questions you will start to feel your foundation of knowledge being poured. Do one at a time and don't worry about remembering because as you research it and write it out.your memory of this will be natural.

5) The plan: Now you used 2 days for writing questions and say it takes you a week to research and write out all answers.

Now you have 5 days to reread your answers that you wrote out.

6) This is no different than building a house. If you want your house to stand you need a strong foundation so don't try to just remember everything,just build your knowledge one pice at a time.

7) It will seam very slow at first,but trust me the last 5 days you will be so focussed with all the notes you wrote out and researched you will ahve confidence.

8) Now if you don't have enough time to do all of the research then after 1 week condense the rest of it by learning the major topics first,but you will already have a good base from the first week and you will be confident and faster at focusing on what's important.

9) I was getting a D in college biology and did this study plan for my final and I got 200 out of 200 on the final and ended with a C+.

Good Luck! Be aggressive and this will replace your fear! Show NO FEAR!  You have over 10 BILLION cells in your brain and genius is triggered by positive emotion not fear.
